Northampton theatre stages adaptation of David Walliams book

By Steve Mills

The stage adaptation of David Walliams’ book Gangsta Granny comes to Northampton next week.

It runs at the Royal & Derngate from Tuesday July 12 to Saturday July 16.

Walliams, who is one of the judges on the popular Britain’s Got Talent TV show and creator of the ground-breaking comedy series, Little Britain, is now the best-selling author for children in the country.

At Christmas 2013 a TV version of Gangsta Granny was shown on BBC One with an all-star cast including David Walliams himself.

It’s Friday night and Ben knows that means only one thing – staying with Granny!

There will be cabbage soup, cabbage pie and cabbage cake and Ben knows one thing for sure – it’s going to be sooooooooo boring!

But what Ben doesn’t know is that Granny has a secret – and Friday nights are about to get moreexciting than he could ever imagine, as he embarks on the adventure of a lifetime with his very own Gangsta Granny!
